When companies upload project documents, they sit in a review queue until a BuildPass admin approves them. Reviewing documents confirms they meet your requirements before workers can sign on and get to work.
Reviewing a SWMS
SWMS must be reviewed and approved before workers can acknowledge them as part of the sign-on process.
Step 1 — Open the project
Select the relevant project from the project list in the top left corner.
Step 2 — Navigate to the To Review section
From the project overview, scroll down to the To Review section. Any SWMS awaiting review will be listed here.
Step 3 — Open the SWMS
Select the SWMS you want to review to open the document details.
Step 4 — Complete the review checklist
On the right-hand side, you'll see the BuildPass SWMS Review Checklist, a default checklist to help you confirm all requirements have been met.
Work through each item in the checklist. If something is missing or incorrect, select the relevant field, add your notes, and save before continuing.
Step 5 — Approve or request changes
Once you've completed the checklist, you have two options:
Mark as Reviewed — approves the SWMS. Workers will now be able to view and sign it as part of their sign-on or induction.
Request Changes — sends an email back to the subcontractor with your checklist notes attached, so they know exactly what needs to be updated before resubmitting.
Reviewing insurance and other documents
Step 1 — Open the project
Select the relevant project from the project list in the top left corner.
Step 2 — Navigate to the To Review section
From the project overview, scroll down to the To Review section and select the insurance or other document you want to review.
Step 3 — Review the document
Open and check the uploaded insurance document to confirm it meets your requirements.
Step 4 — Mark as reviewed
If you're satisfied with the document, select Mark as Reviewed to approve it.
Repeat this process for any remaining insurance or other documents in the queue. You can also view outstanding documents by navigating to the specific module in the left-hand menu of your BuildPass account.
